Back in 2007, you can hear Bill Gates describing Apple.

There's not much going on after 60 seconds, so you should end it there - sorry for the crap link.

Another reason to add to the Apple copied ideas from other people list.

RecievedFiles posted "covered by MCompute(dot)co(dot)uk" on the Youtube. If everyone votes up it will be a great advertising method.

But yeah, wouldn't Jobs have been working on the iPhone during that time? 2007?
They see me trollin', they hatin'.

Cool someone posted on Youtube for us and yep a device like the iPad probably took 3 years to fully design and implement.

Apple don't build anything, they pay Foxconn pennies to build it and sell it for ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS </Dr Evil>

Apple designs it, Foxconn produces it. Simple.
